Preface 


It is not the intention of the author to try to 
teach religion, but to endeavor to point out man's 
true state of being. 

The word man implies both man and woman, 
for in spirit they are but one. 

Man is of God pure and harmonious, and when 
he is not he does not manifest his true condition 
or state of being. 

Sickness and all other adverse conditions are 
caused through separation from God; therefore, 
man should do all he can to regain his rightful 
place with his Father. 

Every man is a central power and attracts 
that which he manifests; thus, he must give out 
love to attract love, etc. He should cast his bread 
upon the waters that they may return to him by 
many ways. 

Every thought is a creative power. And as 
conditions and circumstances are but the result of 
thought, one can actually control his affairs, his 
bodily health, and his relations with his fellow 
men through knowledge and faith in Truth. 


It is within the power of man to enjoy perfect 
health, success and prosperity, if he will study and 
realize his own state of being, his relationship to 
God, his Father, and follow His laws. 

If the reader will study this treatise and ob¬ 
serve diligently its precepts he or she will under¬ 
stand the truth of healing and will find out the 
paths of success. 

“Seek ye first the kingdom of Heaven, and all 
things may be added unto you.” 


AN APPEAL 


Infinite Spiritof my soul, 

Dear God, inspired by thee I plead, 

The world to know thy goal, 

For Thou, alone, unknown cans’t lead-** 
And leading, make us whole— 

To mightest heights of wisdom still— 
Beyond what prophets told, 

Physician, Infinite in skill, 

" Wilt Thou man’s soul unfold. 


“THOU SHALT BE HEALED BY THE OINTMENT OF MY 
WILL, HASTEN THOU, and anoint thyself with the oil of 
My Love. 1 ‘ 

































\ 













































































These Wards Bang Out In Command. 

Thou shalt go forth and record My command¬ 
ments, and reveal unto man My glory. With 
Me shall be thy trust. Hearken unto My voice 
and thou shalt hear and perceive the truth 
which shall shine forth upon thy countenance 
with prosperity and peace. 

My raiment is of light, My words are of light 
and all of Me is of light. I am the salve for all 
wounds and tonic for depression, for through 
Me streams forth life. 

None but Me hath the power of life. Even 
My name spoken in thy household, with love 
shall be as kindling to a dying, smoldering fire 
of love. 

Within Me is the nourishment of the world. 

Fear me not but obey my commandments. 


The Soul’s Answer. 

I awake, O God, to find that thou hast en¬ 
tered into my very being, with a refreshing, 
comforting realization of thy Holy power. A 
power that invigorates my soul with joy, in- 

8 



spiring my every thought with triumph' of thy 
great and mighty works. 

I realize that thou dost honor me with the 
gr^at service of serving Thee, and I understand 
and feel the importance of that situation, but, 
in thy service I know no fear; I know that thou 
art ever near me, indeed, I know Thee just as 
a child naturally knows the protection of its 
parent and I feel under the cafe of a divine 
Father from whence no manner of ill can mar 
my efforts, I grasp with my soul that all that 
I shall do under thy supervision can.but.result 
in glory. 

M ; i * ; , 

I feel within my veins that ail my nerves are 
controlled by divinity, even to the very‘circula¬ 
tion of my blood, which movetli under thy di¬ 
vine powder. Hence is there any wonder^ that 
I realize that adoration and tranquility: -I rec¬ 
ognize that only success 1 can be thalresult in the 
work that I now am going to do* 1 Under what 
more delightful power can anyone work? Is 
not the work under the supreme *£ower of Om¬ 
nipotence? 

One who only sees rays of purity cannot be¬ 
come soiled through aUy> doubt or shades His 


8 


truths are complete, all his works are without 
a flaw. 

Through Thou, my. , heavenly Father, I am 
sanctified by thine honored thought which Thou 
hast imparted unto me, by choosing me as thy 
servant; to work under such a Father is indeed 
holy.. Thus the vibrations of love surges 
through my veins, giving unto me the realistic 
power?of the divinity.! 

My Father, I now rejoice in thee with an in¬ 
expressible joy and certainty of thy holy exist¬ 
ence,? which enlightens my path; and, I feel 
uplifted beyond all material power. I know 
that thou art the strength, and the succour of 
my life and the life of my brethren, I stretch 
out my arms to thee which thou dost clasp 
within thy holy embrace. > ff 


Receive thy Birthright. 

The world, indeed, is thirsting for the life- 
giving power of the Divine. 0 man, thou art 
of God and of His divine strength, wilt thou 
continue to accept the shade for the light? The 
light of God which is thy birthright, The prec¬ 
ious light which He sheds o’er all His.dominion, 

h 9 



that all may bask beneath its delightful powers 
of harmony and life. 

The Omnipotence is the store house of the 
life force. From that living source alone can 
we receive strength and resources of power, 
for, behold there is but one power house, the 
power house of our Eternal Father. 

Hence, I condense my brief introduction by 
asking of God the Almighty, to give the world 
His light, that all mankind may feel and real¬ 
ize the blessedness of divine power, and, that 
all shall understand from where he shall obtain 
his resources and supply of life force. 

I now will ask in prayer, of our Heavenly 
Father, guidance, and, in so doing I will rejoice 
for his administering power. 

I also beg of my brethren to follow the ex¬ 
ample of prayer and thanksgiving, that they 
may obtain directions from Him to the path of 
comfort, peace, harmony and prosperity, which 
can be obtained only through the ways and the 
connection of the All Powerful. 


Heal Thyself, 

Sickness is but a false belief which is based 
upon nothingness. Its unreality is proved 

10 



through the fact of its disappearance before 
Divine power. 

The power of Truth will heal every disease, 
because disease is the opposite of Truth, thus 
disease must drop its weight under Divine 
force. 

Man is Mind, spiritual, and eternal, and can¬ 
not be sick. 

Sickness is only an unreal material growth, 
which if ignored and brought to light as being 
a nothingness by truth must disappear. 

Spirituality is life, and life is the Divine, 
thus when we determine to strengthen our 
minds with truth, we are on the road to health 
and power. If our faith is not strong enough, 
we should seek the mind and help of a practi¬ 
tioner who is strong in Truth, and thus receive 
the health which is our birthright. 

God does not send sickness. He is all love 
and truth. 

Sickness creeps in during the absence of God, 
and the presence and reality of God is health 
and power. 

The dominance of God will cause the most 
dreaded disease to vanish as if by magic. 


11 


All there is in Life is Mind, so when the Mind' 
is in perfect harmony we enjoy perfect health 
and circumstances, and conditions in general.' 

Recognize all disease to be only false impres¬ 
sions depicted upon the body, which lias no 
place or reality of its own. 

This condition of disease must yield to the 
higher law of life, if the law of truth be preva¬ 
lent, there will be no drawing back when the 
higher law is present* so, disease will be cured. 
Because all discord and' disease finds its level 
in nothingness, if treated with love and truth; 
for Mind.is All. Divine Mind is life. Mat&fel 
mind has ( !n]o foundation, thus we must ackno|W- 
edge the emptiness of the lower and the mighti¬ 
ness of the higher, which is the life everlasting. 

Disease i$ ; without basis or foundation, it is 
but the result ofi fear and anxiety, and when 
treated as such, sickness must disappear; har¬ 
mony, which is life, will ignite truth and love. 

I am sanctified by the warmth of thine eternal- 
love. 

Disease is discord. Hasten thou, and obtain 

12 


harmony in the Divine and enjoy perfect health 
and life eternal. 

Think thoughts of health. Think always in 
the way which is right. 

“As a man thinketh so is lie” which our 
Saviour taught. 

Reflect upon thy Maker who is perfect, and 
realise you are a child of God with whom is no 
disease, no death. 

Dismantle thy thoughts from the memories, 
of sickness, charge each thought with a cer¬ 
tainty and reality of health and joy. 

For af such is the kingdom of Heaven. 


Faiths h. 

“Daughter, be of good cheer. Thy faith 
hath made thee whole: go in peace.’’ 

Faith is the basic principle of prosperity 
and life. Upon faith all success and happiness 
originates. Has not our blessed Saviour proved 
in His great teaching that all fundamental re¬ 
sults of good have always been based and ac¬ 
complished through faith? 

If one will realize that faith is the source 
from whence the great powers flow to succor 
13 



our every want and need, then we shall arrive 
at that state or condition of mind, where we 
shall not hesitate to decide that what we will, 
we shall receive through all the force of the 
Omnipotence. 

Faith should be our structural foundation of 
which we should build our desires. We should 
acknowledge that we know and do believe in the 
great powers of the Divine. That His direc¬ 
tions can only be those which are without flaw 
or error. 

Is not He, the All-powerful, without limita¬ 
tion? Thus, to realize that the workings and 
shapings are taking place within the great All- 
powerful, we rely upon Faith of that surety in 
all our undertakings. Faith achieves and ac¬ 
complishes more than any other force, one rea¬ 
son is that it is a divine desire that we should 
believe that the essence of faith is the most 
powerful and in its progress furnishes the be¬ 
liever with a divine stimulation and strength 
which is unknown to material law. 

Faith being a spiritual law, thus, its suprem¬ 
acy towers over the material. According to his 


14 


word and praise, faith will heal and make thee 
whole. Cultivate faith through prayer, and 
when you have the blessed belief, keep it within 
thy soul, watch its progress; how quickly it will 
reveal and manifest great powers which it at¬ 
tracts unto itself. Your every desire will gain 
a recompense and your condition of mind will 
develop to one delightful tune of force and 
harmony; springing from all sides through the 
contented harmonious condition, which will 
light the power of love, truth and courage, 
hence you will realize a relationship with your 
Heavenly Father and sower of the Universe. 
Having arrived at this stage of rational rela¬ 
tionship with Him as your companion, you will 
develop a state of mind that spells SECURITY 
and STRENGTH. 

In this degree, you will understand how to 
manifest divine power with strength, which 
will enable you to rise from the natural to the 
supernatural, thus, the satisfying relationship 
will continue to progress by the powers of the 
Supreme of the world. 

Your material instincts will sink beneath the 
dominance of the super-natural, and, all your 
delights and interests mil be of that high de- 


15 


gree which belong only to. thd righteous and the 
divine, n 

These things, J say unto you, are to be ob¬ 
tained through blessed faith and fervent prayer 
to the One whom thou hast every right to ap-5 
peal to for relief, comfort, deliverance and joy, 
which H£,. as thy parent, will always grant with 
His great love. 

One word more, bear within thy heart that 
thy birthright is a part of Him, who, according 
to His law is united to thee, with bonds of 
LOVE and FREEDOM, which as a rational 
parent he is ever waiting to. administer unto 
His children. 

WATCH AND PRAY AND KEEP TIIY BLESSED FAITH 
IN GOD THE FATHER; 


Trust. 

When we have realized the divine power of 
Faith, we then begin to emerge into the devel¬ 
opment of Trust. Our faith fills us with assur¬ 
ance of confidence, we know that what we will 
shall he granted unto us, as, no longer lurks any> 


16 



shadow of doubt within our dominion, all we 
realize is perfect Trust ; feeling the security of 
divine guidance taking place in a rationahform 
of righteousness. Therefore no encumbrances 
r- retard our efforts. 

Our faith and trust, have inspired ushto the 
certainty of success, for we are clearly- con¬ 
vinced of the righteous, spiritual force which 
ebbs and flows within us; telling and convincing 
that all that within us must result in prosper¬ 
ity in its* fruitfulness. 

u Trust reaches its own qualities of assur¬ 
ance, it repeats that a pure and sacred Trust 
<cannot know of any failure, thus, with this be¬ 
lief and knowledge we continue progress in 
divine force becoming more and more, in direct 
communication with the One Supreme Power, 
from whence we renew all our supply with de¬ 
lightful abundance, and, experiencing no limi¬ 
tations in any measure. 

Faith and Trust are the basis and principle 
! agents for our prosperity and health. 

Trust that has such remarkable powers is 
that state of mind where, to the waiting one, it 


17 


seems such a situation can be passed over al¬ 
most unnoticed, then a realization of wonderful 
force will shortly appear, showing that no cloud 
can possibly exist while there is divine faith 
and trust; it is, as it were, the turn of the tide; 
when at the strongest idea of despair, then 
hold to thy Trust and triumph will issue. 

4 ‘In my Father’s house there are many man¬ 
sions, I go to prepare a place for thee.” I say, 
unto you, occupy one or more of these beauti¬ 
ful mansions which are, FAITH, TRUST, 
LOVE AND CHARITY. Dwell in as many as 
you wish to, they are all at your disposal, wait¬ 
ing for occupation. If you find that you can 
only reach one, stretch forth your strength and 
open the door thereof. After thou hast found 
the way to these mansions which thy Father 
has prepared for you, enter into the tenancy of 
Faith, which will progress into a living domin¬ 
ion of splendor. 


Joy. 

After thou hast entered into thy abode of 
Faith, thou shalt commence to explore the glo¬ 
ries and blessings thereof; from this habita¬ 
tion there shall spring forth from all sides 

18 



countless vines of pleasure and contentment; 
showing forth that on every side exists for you, 
your birthright: JOY, which is the residence 
where you have taken up your dwelling place of 
trust, which is furnished with the sublime es¬ 
sence of everlasting joy and pleasure. 

Your eyes are enthralled with the beauties 
that the house of Faith and trust hold within 
their dominion, you realize in your abundant 
joy that you are in the midst of a happiness of 
which there is no equal or comparison. You 
feel in this dwelling the parental warmth and 
protection of divine force and power. You ex¬ 
claim in loud praise to the One who is stirring 
your heart with emotions of what is known as 
divine assurance and protection, which enlarges 
to a power approaching that of divine mastery 
and self reliance. 

Your joy rebounds and rebounds with a 
great strength, and love, which ebbs around on 
all sides, your desires demand that you give of 
this great love to some one or to many, but, it 
is yourself that requires that others beside 
yourself shall taste of this sublime happiness 
and joy, a joy that you know has no reaction, 
but an inexhaustible supply of delights which 
no earthly power can bestow. 

19 


f * Peace. 

r ■ , 

Now that you have taken possession of these 
delightful abodes, Faith, Trust, and Joy, you 
will want to enter into the abode of Peace, and 
thereof take possessions rTour joy has enthused 
you, that you pause to take-in the aspect, and 
thereby you experience delightful Peace. You 
embrace the opportunity of dwelling in the 
abode of Peace and at once without hesitation 
you decide' to accept this residence. FAITH 
AND TRUST with joy from your attendants, 
who see you are safely installed within the de¬ 
lights of divine Peace, while they await your 
instructions, you are wondering at the great 
marvels of that blessed Peace. You realize a 
sensation and security beyond that of JOY. 
You become perplexed at the wonderful reali¬ 
zation of the sublime tenderness and: tran¬ 
quility, > then you perceive your attendants 
awaiting your desires, you then recognize and 
understand what wonderful mansions you have 
inherited from your Father. You preceive the 
structual force upon which all are built, and, 
in your delightful peace you rest amid the 
strongest powers of the Universe. At any mo- 


20 


merit you imagine that your Father will visit you, 
bringing still more joy and peace to install within 
your wonderful mansions. 

Thus, supreme, you dwell in joy and satisfied 
peace. 

Peace in the universe, 

Joy all around, 

Nothing is wanting, 

Everythings found. 


Cliarity. 

When we have realized that we dwell within 
the beautiful realms of Faith, Trust, Joy and 
Peace, there is no marvel that there be nothing 
wanting. But, God has said, “He who has much, 
more shall be given unto him.” Thus, we find our¬ 
selves contented within the wondrous realms of 
His blessed light. 

Yet another virtue would abide with us, which 
will add to the beauty and enthusiasm of our al¬ 
ready peaceful joy. It is that wonderful virtue, 
Charity, which our Lord was ever administering 
with spontaneous goodness of heart. He was 
ever ready with a supply and ever willing to cast 
upon all sides, knowing that the blessed virtue 
Charity, will blossom and develop to marvelous 
results. Charity being a powerful force, cleansing 


21 



in its progress; for of charity comes the seeds of 
purity and kindness. After you have known and 
found all the virtues of charity, you behold a 
beacon light that will lighten thy glory and mani¬ 
fest thy goodness. 

No deed of charity was ever performed that 
did not leave blessed imprints of its divine pres¬ 
ence. Did not Jesus indulge in charity on every 
possible occasion? And rejoiced always after ad¬ 
ministering an act of charity. He recognized that 
virtue, more than a precious jewel, which was en¬ 
trusted to Him to give unto the world, that they 
should partake of the precious stimulant, and 
strength provider. 

“Tis more blessed to give than to receive,” so 
instructed our Master. He spoke thus, knowing 
that to be charitable is to be near to the blessed 
Light. 

Charity has a force embodied all over its ac¬ 
tion, thus, it is blessed to be in contact with this 
virtue, Charity. 

0, Charity thy name is power, 

That blossoms glory as a flower; 

Infuse my heart with its delight; 

For through its power comes forth great might. 

No virtue stands out in prominence and glory 


22 


as charity, powerful and bold, untarnished with 
life-giving force. 

Charity, even so secretly served, will obtain 
and stand out in prominence and glorify itself 
before the world. 

“He who is without sin, let him cast the first 
stone.” 

Enrich thy. self with acts of charity. 


“Seek and Ye Shall Find.” 

O, man, wilt thou look within thyself and find 
thy oneness with God? Extricate, from the 
depths of material, this great and glorious re¬ 
lationship; which exists within every man; ac¬ 
knowledge and realize thyself, as the child of 
God Almighty and feel within thyself His pa¬ 
rental protection and love; His love and truth 
that ever responds to all who will partake of it. 

If thou, my brother, my sister, have not yet 
this blessed and divine strength and comfort, 
begin now, begin to seek, the way is simple and 
open to each one of us. 


23 



Go alone into thy chamber and ask of Him, 
thy Father, in prayer for His guidance; this 
prayer will be answered, while new strength 
shall surge through thy veins, strength which 
only the divine can give. 

Seek now, thy oneness with God, and partake 
of the great life-giving force and power. 

Know and feel thyself to be the child of Him 
thy Father. He who is pledged to “have things 
become unto thee. ,, 

God is love, His ways are of light, joy, and 
health. Hesitate no longer, go seek Him now 
in thy secret chamber, alone with Him, and 
confide thy desires to Him. And thank Him for 
all his great blessings and rejoice in Him thy 
Saviour. 

Lord of love and King of peace 
To Thee I kneel and pray; 

Give strength to all and love increase 
To make a perfect day. 


24 


Love. 

Love, greatest power that ever inspired, 

The glories of God and His wishes desired. 

It is sacred, beautiful and divine, powerful and 
majestic, surrounded with splendour. Love 
knows no distance, no bars, no denials; the most 
uplifting and sustaining of all divine forces. 

When we have dwelt within our abodes of 
faith, trust along with joy, accompanied by tran¬ 
quil peace and merciful charity, we find ourselves 
confronted with the blessedness of LOVE. 

When we seal our contracts with LOVE, with 
what security do we arrive? 

How many a poor widowed mother will labour 
with the strength of Love, which surmounts nat¬ 
ural strength, to maintain her fatherless children. 
Her labours are not attended with fatigue. People 
exclaim in astonishment, how does she find such 
strength and health to work thus?” 

They do not pause to find out, that she is la¬ 
bouring under and by the spirit of LOVE, which 
knows not fatigue or pain. 

Her strength comes through the love she bears 
her children, and, smooths and keeps her path 
clear from all weakness. 

Her lot in life is not irksome nor heavy, for 
her veins are constantly supplied with an inex- 


25 


haustible power of divine strength direct from 
the Heavenly Father of her children, He who is 
always a Father to them who are in appearances 
fatherless. 

Upon her countenance is always seen the glow 
of happiness, peace among what appears to out¬ 
siders “a tight place,” 

Reflect and take notice what a mere glance of 
love will produce. A speaker, addressing perhaps 
thousands of people, may in his address cast forth 
glances of love, which, he feels within his heart. 
Watch the thousands, who are listening to him 
and, almost every face will bear a look of pleasure 
resembling what he himself has reflected on his 
countenance. 

It is the life giving force which reveals the 
power of God which ignites within each breast 
that has observed the force. Love is a wonderful 
stimulus of security and joy. 

When thy soul is charged with love, 

Great powers shower from above; 

Every act of joy and gain 
And thy body free from pain. 

Visions bright of love appear, 

Helping everyone, so dear, 

On to joy that doth entwine, 

O’er thy great celestial vine. 


2(5 


No sadness can pass through the bars of love. 

Love reigns supreme within her sublime pal¬ 
ace of joy. 

THINK LOVE, SEEK LOVE, AND YOU WILL 
FIND LOVE WITH A REWARD 
THAT EXCELS ALL CONTEMPLATION OF 
SO-CALLED MATERIAL PLEASURE. 

In Love thou shalt become strong and power¬ 
ful, thy works shall be endorsed with the beauti¬ 
ful spirit of thy loving heart. 

My name is love, my actions are of love; and, 
that love I bestow upon all who will accept. 

Love enters the heart as a gentle dove, with 
outstretched wings, gathering under them the 
most powerful forces of happiness and success. 
Cherish the dove of love while it gathers in abun¬ 
dance the powerful forces of life. Each force at¬ 
tracts essence of the all magnificent force of 
strength, then, in turn impart its delightful pow¬ 
ers among those who are ready to accept. 


27 


“The Harvest is Great but The lab¬ 
orers are Few.” 

These words were declared by our Saviour 
nearly two thousand years ago; and the same is 
the cry today. 

The harvest is great beyond all expression, 
abundant even as the sands of the sea. 

If man would but calculate upon the immensi¬ 
ty of the wealth of this harvest whereby he the 
reaper would enjoy and partake of all the blessed 
abundance from the harvest of God: 

Within this field labourers can work and reap 
that which they desire, all that is necessary to 
man's existence. 

There is working and reaping for health, 
strength, beauty, and the stimulating harvest of 
love. 

The field is covered with these attributes, all 
waiting for the reaper. 

“The harvest is great but the labourers are 
few.” 

0, man come thou and enter into this great 
field, and become a reaper, thy every effort shall 
be manifested with glory and abundance, from 
whence all blessings flow. 

0, if thou would’st but feel the buoyancy of 
the life giving forces of man which are pregnated 


all over the fields, here every reaper is crowned 
with the blessed hand of prosperity; for the 
hand is of God. Man may talk about his great 
achievement but it is a proven fact that there is 
no great achievement like unto that which is 
gained through God; such achievement and at¬ 
tainment is everlasting for it is blessed by the 
spiritual love of the father of us all. 

There are no fields that yield crops like these 
of God; His reaping is unsurpassed; His reap¬ 
ing brings man his strength—this is the kind of 
reaping for man, strength of body and of soul. 

What a disastrous realization to mankind 
that for such a harvest, there are such a few 
laborers to reap of the great and necessary 
nourishments of strength and power of man. 

Thou, my brother or sister, if thou art suf¬ 
fering from ill health, enter into this blessed 
field of health; and become healed by being a 
reaper. There is not any gleaning to be done, 
all is splendid, abundant harvesting. 

There is not any anxiety of weather condi¬ 
tions, for the Master of the harvest controls the 
weather, thus your reaping is sure in its supply 
and excellent in quality. You will reap that 
what you seek—good health. 

29 


If you are not successful as you would be, 
go into this field and reap your prosperity—a 
prosperity which you have never equalled be¬ 
fore; conditions of success which you have 
never dreamed of, for all are in this field, where 
there are no doubts about the fluctuations of the 
market for God is the Holder of all bonds and 
securities, and these bonds pay the greatest 
dividends. 

Enter thou into this great field, and partake 
of thy share of abundance and plenty, it has 
been ordained for you, and is yours through the 
Universal law which cannot be questioned or 
changed. 

Be a reaper and be healthy, prosperous, be¬ 
gin and enter the field now of abundance and 
life, come and take thy full measure. 

The harvest is great but the labourers are few. 

Reflect o’er these words for the maxim is true; 

In the field of abundant joy and health, 

You have only to enter and take of this wealth 
Health is for you if your work is true 
The wealth must be yours, it follows in too 

With abundance and plenty and then more to spare; 
Come into the field and partake of your share 
The reapings for you as well as for me 
Come into the field of the righteous and the free.

Healed 


A light ignited in my heart, 

And of my life became a part; 

Its glowing rays cast power divine 
And I rejoiced that light was mine. 

My soul from darkness became bright 
My restless spirit calmed in light 
My heart beat with the flower of joy 
The light became my guiding buoy. 

This healing is within the reach of everybody. 
It is but the realization of Truth. The light of 
truth and love will always ignite within every 
heart, providing one seeks for it, and every heart 
can beat with the flower of joy; and many will do 
so for the world is realizing that through Divine 
grace their restless spirits will be calmed in Light. 

Man shall rejoice because the Light is his, and 
will be his guiding buoy through all conditions, 
and will protect him from all danger, while it will 
reconstruct his body. 

The work of the human body is ever going on 
with its marvelous work—reconstructing and 
making over again muscle, fibre, blood, in fact 
every portion of the body is continually being re¬ 
constructed. 

It is either remade by mortal mind or Divine 
Mind. The human body cannot stand still, it has 


always to perform its functions and reconstruc¬ 
tion. 

And the construction that heals is divine 
mind, and it is the mortal mind when it is operat¬ 
ing that brings disease. 

Inspect yourself and decide which body you 
will have—a healthy form of Godly grace, from 
Divine thinking, Divine acting, or a diseased form 
of sickness through thoughts of mortal mind? 

If you are bearing sickness, you can be healed 
in the twinkling of an eye, by changing mortal 
thought to divine thought and through seeking 
the Light of God. 

When you have accepted divine thinking and 
acting, your body will undergo a change caused 
by tearing down of mortal obstructions because 
they do not conform with the higher power. Soon 
all will be of one accord and thou art healed, and 
you will be protected and controlled by God. He 
will become your Guiding Buoy of life. And thou 
shall cry, “I am healed, all pain has gone, and my 
soul is illumined by the grace of God. 

I am not only healed of bodily error but I am 
triumphant in all my circumstances; the life giv¬ 
ing force has given unto me a new body without 
blemish, and a new understanding which profiteth 
my life all ways. The restoration of my health 


causes me to cry again aloud with thanksgiving to 
the all powerful Physician.'' 


Success. 

0, how I have sought thee again and again, 

My efforts were useless, all was in vain; 

Thought after thought swept fast through my brain 
There must be a reason success you don’t gain. 
Despairing and sad with grief in my soul 
I prayed unto God to show me the goal, 

The answer soon came to mind and to ear, 

Success is yours if you practice right here, 

Efficiency, Courage, and Faith combine 

Success is yours—success is thine. 

It is the cry of the world to gain success, but, 
alas, it is not the endeavour of the world to ascer¬ 
tain how to gain and retain that what they crave 
for. 

If one would reflect that every condition is 
governed by law, either by a higher law or by a 
lower law, he must arrive at the decision that he 
takes, either a higher law or a lower one to govern 
his efforts and work. 

Because we are constituted that we can only 
develop under natural forces through divine 
power. 

We cannot gather force through the physical 



element alone, the body being passive and inactive 
of itself; therefore we musf look within for the 
power which gives unto man his comforts and 
success. We have to recognize this divine force 
or strength working through our being; and all, 
who will, can partake of this power. 

These forces are all from God—Good, and any 
other force which works for anything else but 
Good, is not from the Source from whence all 
blessings flow. 

We will now investigate that we may have 

success. 

First—Anxiety, worry, and impatience are not 
of God, because, He is only of the all Good, and 
as like begets like: we realize that if we would be 
successful, we must blend only those forces that 
harmonize with the all Good, so, that our results 
may be of the same substance of which we have 
manufactured them. 

Thus, one has to commence by throwing off 
anxiety, and realize that the Godly energy that 
we expended upon anxiety, was sufficient to have 
accomplished the desired success which we sought. 

We have to have confidence and trust in God 
and in our work, we have to feel that the power 
which achieved our work was from the all Good— 
and therefore, we know that our work is efficient 
and it is good, thus, we have confidence in our 

34 


own efforts and work. When we have realized 
this truth, we shall work with unerring faith 
which will bring success into our work. 

We now understand that anything relative to 
anxiety or doubt has to be abolished, and as we 
succeed in destroying these, we shall meet our 
goal of success. 

We know that we need all the Godly energy 
we can gather, and we must understand such en¬ 
ergy to be a precious jewel not a power to be used 
up by the down pressing, destructive element as 
worry and anxiety. Thus we thoroughly under¬ 
stand how to cherish the energy of God, we 
should lift up our hearts and voices and declare 
our thanks unto Him, and in beseeching tones im¬ 
plore that He abide with us forever, because, we 
have found out the safety and glory of his guid¬ 
ance. 

When love doth dwell within thy heart, 

It speaks unto thy soul; 

Of all good things it takes a part, 

And makes success a whole. 


35 


Prosperity. 

Who or what canst thou not be 
What e’er are the mysteries of thee? 

I dare to know from where thou art, 

To share the triumphs of thy heart. 

Prosperity is man’s rightful condition of life; 
it is his lawful inheritance. 

Therefore the time is here that every individ¬ 
ual will ascertain why he or she has not of this 
necessity of life. 

To arrive at the condition of prosperity we 
must have a state of mind that is governed and 
controlled by harmony, for, music filled with dis¬ 
cordant notes would not result in a delightful tune, 
the same is with man, when his mind is crowded 
with discord, how can harmony enter therein ? 

God created man that he should enjoy har¬ 
mony throughout his life, therefore the forces of 
life must vibrate and accord in perfect unison of 
bodily and mental effect. 

When God created man, he created his at¬ 
tributes along with him, and the perfection of man 
cannot exist without these attributes of accord 
thus showing the created and the conditions cre¬ 
ated must be combined to make a perfect whole. 

The musical machine is nothing without the 
music, and man is nothing without the harmony 
of God. 


36 


God's harmony is man's birthright. 

Every man is a spiritual being, therefore ev¬ 
erything is achieved or acquired through unseen 
powers and principles. 

For one to look to the material for results of 
good would be useless, because it is not there; the 
material is but the mould from where the expres¬ 
sion of the spiritual good appears in manifesta¬ 
tion. 

Prosperity consists of re-enforcements of di¬ 
vine activity, ruling and achieving circumstances 
according to its environment of harmony. 

Harmony is the force of prosperity, and they 
are there with one accord, so should every 
thought be of purity of one accord in the mind 
blending for the all good. 

Harmony is gained by man himself, through 
his gathering of material to bring about the har¬ 
mony that he would possess. 

Each form of material will form a force and 
every force must be intact that they may accord; 
if any one does not accord then his harmony will 
be discordant, and the tune he needs is not pres¬ 
ent ; m its stead is a mixed medley which he fails 
to understand. 

The forces which are imperative to prosperity 
are normal conditions of living—erect poise, right 
thinking, sure and steady motion, a clear percep- 
37 


tion, confidence and an even balance—all these 
forces working together, none being missing— 
means prosperity. 

To obtain these attributes we have to have im¬ 
plicit faith in God, so that our minds may become 
receptive to the warnings and advice which will 
vibrate through our beings; to be patient and 
watchful of every instinct that God surges 
through the mind of man when he seeks his help. 

When a person decides that he will recognize 
prosperity through divine grace, and if he will 
seek it from God with the following of the in¬ 
structions which will come through God, they will 
receive the happiness of prosperity. 

God is the only power of prosperity because lie 
is Love. To become prosperous we need to suc¬ 
ceed in our work and our undertakings; this can¬ 
not be achieved without the power of LOVE, 
which must be in every thing and in every condi¬ 
tion, because before we succeed in any thing we 
have to love it. 

This is a golden rule and a correct one. To 
gain Love we must seek it through God. Try His 
door and it will open unto you, revealing the se¬ 
crets of this joy. 

Start today. You will not be disappointed in 
results, prosperity shall lay across thy path. Seek 
love from God and be blessed. 


The Golden Dawn. 

The golden dawn now shines its light on earth, 
Awakening man to the truth of his birth 
Revealing wisdom in the man God made 
Perfect in being he can never fade 
His soul is annexed to the Living One 
In triumph he stands with victory won. 

The golden dawn of chastity is now shedding 
its purifying brilliancy o’er mankind; and the lust 
torn earth looks up with new hope, born of the 
realization that he has long cherished falsity in¬ 
stead of Truth. He is slowly awakening to the 
fact that destruction and downfall are caused by 
lust: he recognizes the fact that these senses are 
many times the cause of laziness, disease, divorce 
and fraility of offspring. 

This awakening brings the picture of a purer 
and happier marriage, unadulterated by the baser 
emotions—a marriage at the same time expres¬ 
sive of love and purity, of contentment and health. 
It brings a picture of happy, intelligent childhood, 
true children of God for they are the off-spring of 
pure love; of pure-minded parents, who have used 
their creative powers that they might have chil- 
children. They have not indulged in lust, which 
wages war against God. 


89 


When pure love is the dominating power, soul 
looks into soul; each behold the virtues of the oth¬ 
er, and draws them to himself; each give and take 
those virtues, which are a strengthening and sus¬ 
taining force. 

As time moves on, man will more and more 
recognize the fact that beauty in form and figure 
do not*constitute the true woman. Man will ab¬ 
sorb the true beauty of soul, forgetting the out¬ 
ward fascination for beauty, which appeals to 
the lust sensesmore than to the higher nature of 
man. 

Sex attraction, miscalled love, is not a lasting 
bond between man and woman, which is proved 
by the numerous divorces, that this fascination is 
but short lived; in consequence of it having no 
foundation of truth. 

0, for the time when all men will come to the 
realization that a home created by a pure love is 
all desirable; where soul blends with soul in end¬ 
less loving unity. 

Such is the home of those who have overcome 
the world, and are climbing to the noblest heights 
of living, to a heaven on earth. Blessed are they: 
for they live in defiance of satan and his desires. 


O, chaste and pure thou woman mine 
Thou art. of God perfect, divine.

A Message to a Weary Sister. 

Dear Sister, art thou weary, or art thou suf¬ 
fering ? If thou art suffering or if thou art weary, 
fear not. Because thy Father is ready to take 
thee unto himself and heal thee and give thee 
comfort. His spirit will vibrate thy being with 
his love and take away thy burdens. You are 
only sleeping in the midst of spiritual life. 
You will awaken as the morning glories; they 
awaken under God’s light and show forth their 
beauty; so, dear sister it is with thee. You shall 
awake and in the morning glow of his precious 
light you will awaken to the truth of thine own 
true self, and shall glorify God as the flowers—• 
the morning glories glorify Him with their beau¬ 
tiful radiance and fragrance. 

Dear Sister, thou art as the beautiful morning 
glories; God has given unto thee beauty and 
power to beautify the world. God has adorned 
you as his own precious flower with grace to 
brighten the world with thy presence. Watch 
these flowers, how obedient they are to God. How 
they wait His time for expression of their great 
beauty. These flowers are come to teach us the 
way to our Heavenly Father. Each one of these 
flowers are independent, except of God, in its own 
beautiful bell. Each petal opens or shuts by the 
power of God. 


41 


Dear Sister, when we do as these flowers we 
shall not know of weariness nor sickness, all we 
shall do is to do His bidding and be as they, beau¬ 
tiful, filled with the fragrance of Heaven. Every 
shadow will brighten in your light when you have 
come to Him. Thou art but asleep from this 
blessed truth, soon thou shalt be awake and ex¬ 
press thyself in all the beauty of which God in¬ 
tended thee to shine forth unto the world. 

Dear Sister, you will not stir and nod without 
God's spirit long. For ’tis God that awakens you, 
sleepy one, kindling thy radiance of love through 
the golden hours of thy womanhood. Everyone 
will imagine that they hear the breezes whisper, 
“Nature’s beauties all are one and all by God are 
blessed." Thou wilt open thy heart with all the 
power of lovely woman, who art of God. 

Pretty, charming bells, asleep, in the morning glow 
All unconscious of the charm God’s dews bestow; 
Morning glories, baby ones, do you stir and nod, 

In your sleep of innocence, until aroused by God. 

’Tis the sun that wakens you, slgepy, drowsy floweit 
Kindling your radiance through the golden hours 
Ah, now, each of you have heard Heaven’s loving call 
Though you toil not, yet your beauty justifies it all 

All the shadows in the grass brighten in your light 
And the breeze delays to woo, pausing in its flight 
I think I hear them whispering to your petals, pressed 
“Nature’s beauties all are one and all by God are 
blessed. ’ ’ 


“Let Not Tity Heart lie Troubled” 

“Let not thy heart be troubled” 

In its sojourn of peace and love; 

Let it ebb and flow with comfort 
And tranquil as the gentle dove. 

“Let not thy heart be troubled” 

For what our Saviour said is true 
God is ever willing, waiting — 

To shine Ilis light on you. 


Let the waters of thy life fountain ebb and 
flow by the power of God. Permit no thought of 
fear to enter thy heart and mar its purity. 

Thoughts of anxiety and of fear will disturb 
and trouble the waters of thy heart; thy heart, 
the main spring of mortal life, calls aloud for 
peace. Every draught that passes through the 
heart if it be not pure will darken the waters of 
this fountain, filling thy being with gloom, and 
every thought carrying the life blood hither and 
thither leaves its characteristic impressions, 
either for good or for ill. Thy heart is the power 
which gives utterance to the soul. If the soul suf¬ 
fers the body suffers also, and ail will be like 
troubled waters, moving without aim or intelli¬ 
gence; the soul would cry to the heart in distiess, 
“Peace, be stillyet while the storm of fear and 


anxiety rages within it cannot know peace, it is 
like the house divided against itself; divided 
against the forces of peace and discord; for the 
pure life-giving waters of spirit are not allowed 
to carry away the obstacles which mortal fear has 
erected. Let not thy heart be troubled, let it be 
free, working through God’s fount of activity 
where every channel will be freed by love, and as¬ 
surance and every beat is a note of joy and vir¬ 
tue ; telling of firmness, faith, and perfection. Do 
not stop this life-giving flow by allowing sadness 
to enter, for grief causes stagnation. If the ma¬ 
chinery of the heart is ruined, it is through har¬ 
bouring fear, worry or false apprehension and 
thus the heart is afflicted and ruined. It is clear 
that every troubled heart desires peace and health. 
Go to Him who is the Founder of all health and 
virtue and receive a new supply of Godly energy 
which will vibrate through the clogged-up cells 
and clearing away all obstructions, making every 
pathway of health clear to perform its healthy 
functions of life; every muscle and fibre will be 
reconstructed and every day will bring perfection 
of this reconstruction. Think and know that as a 
child of God you can claim health as your rightful 
heritage. 


44 


God. 


There are people who think that God is a 
spiritual being just to be worshipped and 
feared; they believe if they neglect to adore Him 
with praise and self sacrifice, they will be pun¬ 
ished by His anger. This is all erroneous, be¬ 
cause God is all Love and Light. There is no 
anger with God, He knows not of anger. It is 
not the worshipping of God that will save one, 
especially when that is founded upon fear; such 
praise and devotional practice is not seen or 
heard by God. He has nothing to do with any¬ 
thing that is not of Truth. God does not pun¬ 
ish, it is man who punishes himself; or his fore¬ 
fathers do the punishing: because evil being an 
element which causes sickness and disease is 
passed on from the third and fourth genera¬ 
tions. This evil or sickness has not been given 
unto mankind by God, mankind has begotten it 
by keeping away from God. 

God is Love, Life, and Truth: and the attri¬ 
butes and laws belonging to these have to be 
complied with for man to enjoy them. 

Love and hate do not intermingle; you have 
to have one or the other. One is for God, and 


45 


the other is not; so when one indulges in 
hatred, he has to leave the blessed love of God 
to indulge in that evil element. This element of 
hate sets up other evils, which bind man in bond¬ 
age, but God did not inflict such punishment. 

If man wants to be with God he must leave 
the shadows of evil and go to God, but he can¬ 
not mix any evil thought without coming into 
evil; evil is evil and good is good; they will not 
combine. 

True, sometimes sickness or adversity brings 
us to God, but we are directly brought because 
of these existing evils, and it is only when we 
suffer that we are often inclined to turn to God, 
and so by turning away from our evil, we begin 
to find the blessed Light and Strength of God, 
and thus we learn how to live with God again, 
without entering into the avenue of evil. 

Crying aloud in lamentations and prayers 
does not bring us to God, while we still cherish 
the shadow that is darkening one’s life. If we 
do not remove the obstacle which is keeping us 
from God, all the prayers and entreaties are of 
no avail to bring happiness or health. 

As the beautiful sun, when it is out in full 
force, clears away all shadow, so also it is with 


God, His Light cleareth away all sickness and 
evil. No evil can approach God, He is all Good. 
Thus, when we want to be with Him, we have to 
abandon the bad, which clears off our fetters, 
and we can then approach God with ease. It is 
only difficult to do this when the obstacle of evil 
prevails. 

When we are in harmony with God, we know 
not of sickness, we are as God created us, a 
living, spiritual being—without spot or blemish, 
made in His own image. 

It is only the bonds of man’s material in¬ 
stincts and evil thinking that cause separation 
from God. Live the pure life, and be as one 
with the Father in holy Fellowship, where noth¬ 
ing exists but the beautiful, pure and holy, 
which is man’s true selfhood. 

Man who is made in God’s image, is immortal 
and can never die, but liveth on forever. 

It appears so strange that some people 
should think that when they leave their bodies, 
that is the last of them. How many a person 
says, 4 ‘when I am dead,” but that person can 
never die. 

It should be perfectly clear to any sensible 
person, that man, whom God made as the finest 
of His creations, after a sojourn on earth of 
47 


but a few years should not be subject to death, 
but should merit some higher destiny, some 
loftier plane of life? This supposition should 
be evident from every point of view. 

Would destruction be the final aim God had 
in making man after his own image? To allow 
him to be upon earth but a few years and then 
return to dust? 

No, a thousand times, No. God did not go 
to so much trouble to create dust. His creation 
was Life of fulness; a Life of Abundance; a 
Life Everlasting. He created man an immor¬ 
tal. 


Going Into the Silence. 

When we want to go into the silence, our first 
action should be to seek a place which is obscure 
and tranquil, away from the confusion and dis¬ 
traction of everyday life. 

After we have succeeded in obtaining a re¬ 
tiring room, or quiet place in the open air, we 
retire to that place in a mood of reverence. 
Generally before sitting down we look around 
to ascertain whether we are alone. 


48 



After finding that we are away from every 
disturbance of general life, a sensation of sat¬ 
isfaction steals over us, as if we were sure we 
were going to accomplish something with real¬ 
ization of positive benefit. Following this feel¬ 
ing another enters, a feeling which comes 
through shutting out all of the five senses: we 
neither hear, see nor feel what is going on in the 
outer world; for we have entered into that at¬ 
mosphere which is holy and high, an atmosphere 
beyond the sense of physical sight, an atmos¬ 
phere beyond the sense of hearing what is 
about us, and in its stead is a sense of spiritual 
seeing and hearing beyond all expression. 

We give up and let go every vibration of 
the physical emotions, and take on those of the 
spiritual; and then we begin to realize the 
Divine presence. Our heart calls out in an in¬ 
audible voice, but its power seems to go beyond, 
soaring to some important goal. 

We remain passive with these emotions, 
which have come to us of their own free will, no 
effort has been made on our part: the atmos¬ 
phere created itself, an atmosphere of com¬ 
fort, assurance and strength. And thus we 
remain in the silence, quiet, undisturbed in the 


49 


element of Divine comprehension, and so onr 
hearts unload their burdens, and each burden 
is unconsciously, yet consciously, laid at the 
feet of Jesus. 

Each trial of ours we seem to pass over to 
Him, because in the silence we realize and un¬ 
derstand the great superiority and vigilance of 
cur Heavenly Father: and in the silence comes 
that assurance as of a child to its father, and 
so one lays down his burden wdth a sense of 
confidence, knowing that each trial will be justly 
obliterated from the pathway of him who is bur¬ 
dened with it. 

And while w T e sit in this passive attitude, the 
intellect opens to the Divine power, the body 
opens in receptiveness to the str ngth which is 
ever flowing in this atmosphere while one is 
seeking the silence, where one is seeking that 
holy communion with the Father of every living 
soul: and through this seeking, each one who 
seeks the silence always emerges from it a 
stronger and more intelligent being than when 
he entered. 

Many people believe that they must know how 
to concentrate before they can go into the 


silence. There is no need of having any knowl¬ 
edge about the matter at all: for the element 
that is required is created when we are in the 
silence—the desire to commune with God. 

It is the desire only, the desire constitutes the 
effect of “knocking at the door, ” and, as every¬ 
one knows, “KNOCK AND IT SHALL BE 
OPENED UNTO YOU.” 

This is the only necessary requirement, THE 
DESIRE to commune with the SOURCE of all 
Life, the SUPPLY, the Peace of our hearts, the 
Strength—God—our Father. 

At once, when we have the desire to commune 
with Him, the atmosphere begins to create about 
us; and, in this passive state, one receives 
strength and supply. 

Going into the silence is the golden key to 
success and prosperity because, in the silence, 
you partake direct from the only Storehouse, 
you take of the Universal Supply, for the silence 
is the only door by which you can enter to par¬ 
take of these life-giving Powers. While there, 
within the sanctuary of thine own heart, you 
converse with God. All thy needs are revealed 
to Him during the time you are thus passive 


and released in body and mind. Yon have be¬ 
come receptive to receive His powerful Strength 
of Love and Abundance. 


The Law of Circulation. 

Almost every occult student knows that this 
is the law: that we must give to receive. This 
is the proverb, ‘ ‘ It is more blessed to give than 
to receive/’ 

Not only is this a proverb, but it is a posi¬ 
tive fact and a law. We only get out of life 
and nature what we put into it: this is the law 
of balance. 

What we put into our work and into our life 
we reap from it: although there are times when 
the reaping appears to be prolonged, some time 
in the future it is certain to be realized. All 
motion is in a circle: by the law of compensa¬ 
tion we have to receive according to that we put 
out. 

Therefore, when we love our work we shall 
receive in return that enthusiasm which we have 
put into it. 

The Universe is one piece. We give unto 
the whole and in return we receive from the 
52 



whole. When we are kind and generous to 
ourselves alone, we receive in return the 
amount according to one, instead of the amount 
of many. 

Generosity bestowed upon one’s self is sim¬ 
ply returned to us to the extent of one. There¬ 
fore, one of the most important things in life 
is to watch what and how we give. Because 
no fact is more true than this: “ As thou sowest, 
so shalt thou reap.” 

Whether it be love, generosity, happiness, 
compassion, power, or be it laziness, selfishness, 
greed or malice, all come under the same law 
and principle: as they are sown so shall the har¬ 
vest be. 

To give of one’s material goods, services or 
sympathies, with a generous heart, is the most 
blessed thing that man can indulge in, and al¬ 
ways reaps its reward in its kind. 

This is not a world of individuality, but a 
world of a Whole. And to go with the Whole 
connects you with every Source; you or I can 
be one of the great Company, and thus by giv¬ 
ing and doing in the Company we receive our 
dividends according to our services to the 
Whole, whose returns are marvelous in quan- 

53 


tity and quality. 

If one would pause and reflect what he is los¬ 
ing in life by being too individualistic, he would 
at once turn and begin to find out how he could 
become one of the Whole: which is easy, indeed 
—just the putting off of self and selfishness, and 
sharing in the gigantic Whole of power and 
abundance. 

Herein lies the blessedness of giving. You, 
as the common phrase goes, throw a sprat to 
catch a mackerel. You throw in your own 
small self, and become a living part of the 
mighty, abundant Whole. Truly, it is more 
blessed to give than to receive. 

In the words of the author of El Reshid: 4 ‘We 
get for what we give, and we give for what we 
get” 

For “No man liveth unto himself alone.” 


The Will. 

The will of man is a spiritual force, by vir- - 
tue of which God has said, “Man shall have do¬ 
minion over all things.” 

It is the exercise of the will that brings man 

54 



to heights of spiritual and material power. It 
is through persistent practice that man collects 
will-power: by determination he develops char¬ 
acter, and will force follows as a natural result. 
It is character that builds in the man that irre¬ 
sistible strength which creates itself into will¬ 
power. 

The man who goes on and on in spite of all 
obstacles, continuing his laborious course, only 
pausing to surmount some object or hindrance, 
each time his course is delayed by removing 
these obstructions he is rewarded by more 
power and will: each surmounting is a new 
treasure to his storehouse, if by sheer will force 
he overcomes and continues on his way. 

Sometimes the way is so long it appears that 
its limit can never be reached, its limit where 
he is to find his goal. With this picture in his 
mind he still resolutely pursues the coveted way. 

At length, tired out with the fatigue of end¬ 
less lifting and mounting, the goal seems im¬ 
possible for him to reach. But, on, on, because 
he is being pushed on by that dogged, never- 
give-in power of will: in his strength he is cer¬ 
tain of reaching the required goal, for on his 
journey his will and strength have become 

55 


doubled by the endeavors and mountings, which 
he has done. His endeavors and achievements 
that have aided him have enabled him to over¬ 
come what appeared impossible, have also given 
him a spiritual strength and will to conquer. 

Conquer he must. Conquer he will. 

He has had in mind the old proverb, ‘ *What 
a man wills, he can; and when he can he does, 
and victory is his.’ ’ 

This determination is doubly stamped on his 
memory, he is stimulated by its vibrations. He 
is getting nearer and nearer to his Father, who 
is COURAGE and POWER. His being begins 
to illumine with a force of Divine virtue, for he 
remembers he is a child of God, and that with 
God all is possible. 

This assurance convinces him that defeat 
is impossible. 

On, on, he continues with a stout heart. On, 
on; the way is very long. But, as the dawn is 
just after the darkest hour, so is his goal 
reached just before the darkest gloom disap¬ 
pears. He sees his goal ahead, gained slowly 
but surely through will power through the help 
of God. 

If he were deprived of will power, man would 


not be able to manifest the promise which God 
has made that he should < * have dominion over 
all things.’ ’ 

It is will-force which gives unto man the su¬ 
premacy of dominion and it is his repeated ef¬ 
forts to obtain this dominion that gives him 
power to control and command his will to what¬ 
ever he desires. 

When the object of thy will is worthy and 
good, continue its course. Knowing the desire 
you will is pure, you connect it with God, and 
in return you receive His help, and every strain 
you make in the pursuit you gain a strength 
which is the substance of which the will is com¬ 
posed. 

There would not exist any real victory were 
it not for the defeats which are overcome. 

The mil of God liveth within the soul of every 
man.

As the flower has the right to its perfume, 
thus man has the right of life everlasting. 

The Lord created each and to each gave its 
inheritance. 

Close down the casket of pessimism, bury it 
away and deep; then, take unto thyself the inflow

soul to be the master, by which thou shalt be

Fear me not, but seek me among the beautiful, 
for is not my presence manifested by the faultless 
and fragrant flower with the beauty of the blush¬ 
ing rose? 

All flowers glorify my love for mankind, for I 
am the essence and fragrance of the flowers, 
which I have given unto man to refresh his mem¬ 
ory of my love. 

True happiness is the casting off of self. 

60 


With the weak I have no place, for he who was 
weak and findeth me is made strong. 

Weakness and sickness vanish beneath my 
rays of love. 

Dwell not upon doubt for by so doing thou 
rebuketh me. 

God the divine power and great physician, 
who mingleth not among disease, for all manner 
of sickness cleareth away at His approach. 

Disease feareth the divine and cometh not 
within His presence. 

God mingleth amid fragrance and beauty; as 
oil rises above water, God's power rises to the 
surface of all material. And thus, and thus, it 
shall be that all mankind shall rise to heights of 
health and prosperity, even as God rises above 
all shadow. 

He giveth unto thee water sparkling with 
purity, but, through the darkness of the hour, 
man seeth not how he soileth its freshness and 
purity. 

Thou shalt make thy life a heaven by forget¬ 
ting thy own existence. 

When a beautiful mansion is built for thee, 
why build one for thyself ? 


61 


The secret of happy life is love. 

Arise to the heights of love and scatter love on 
all sides, that thou shalt harvest a rich crop of 
the wealth of life. 

Shine forth thy love, charity and unselfish¬ 
ness, joy and faith, whereby thou shalt obtain 
harmony with the greatest forces of life. 

There are those who would give to the poor, 
but, reflect that their purse be not full enough; 
he that pondereth thus, leaneth solely upon his 
own material strength and thus forsakes my spir¬ 
itual power. For I am thy Banker, I am thy all. 

He that giveth with a good heart to the poor, 
shall receive interest threefold, even, as in the 
days when Jesus fed the multitudes on two small 
fishes and bread, yet, baskets had to be filled with 
the fragments which were left; for, the hand of 
the Divine had provided; thus, God provides for 
all who follow him and have faith in Him. 

Every one was fed for my strength was there. 

Love me and fear not for tomorrow, depend 
upon the ever filling reservoir of supply that 
comes through me. 

He who would stoop to be a miser leaves my 
glory as long as he holdeth the curse of gold with 
him. 


As a castle built of sand he droppeth away, 
leaving nothing, but the despair of his imagina¬ 
tion. 

An awakening shall come to thee, 

Of which shall be of me; 

And it will show you what to do, 

Works which thou shalt never rue. 

He who pondereth over the success of tomor¬ 
row, loses the glory of today. 

Commence the day in my praise and make 
adoration for thy day. 

Commence thy work with the vibration of hap¬ 
piness, and, each succeeding hour shall shine 
forth with power. 

The powerful light of love burneth down the 
wall of selfishness. 

Selfishness widens the path between God and 
man. 

Give freely of what thou hast, knowing that 
behind thee is an all powerful provider to replen¬ 
ish thy stock. 

Record how many seasons thou hast seen, then 
calculate how many good deeds thou hast done; 
subtract from the record and the total will give 
you your age. 


I say unto you that good deeds take away the 
weight of years. 

The seasons count as nothing to the righteous, 
old age can be gained in youth, and youth can 
exist throughout man’s life. 

Thou brother, thou sister, think not that this 
life’s journey which thou takest is the only one; 
for many journeys are of the soul. 

0, soul thou knowest not of limitations, within 
thy immortal sphere all is splendour and life ever¬ 
lasting. 

Unfold thee incessantly, that thy glories ex¬ 
tend and dwell visibly among all. 

The realization of thee, is the certainty of life 
everlasting. 

Strengthen thy arm with the power of God. 

“Peace, be still,” thus spake our Saviour to 
the angry waves. Seek thou the power of the di¬ 
vine, and rise, my brother, to the strength and 
power to hush also the angry waters. 

Absorb from me, thou created man; through 
which thou shalt rise to that of the all powerful, 
even unto myself. 


64 


Observe with accuracy my rays of light; 
watch their penetration and receive the powers 
thereof. 

As cream rises to the surface, let trust in God 
rise above doubt, and receive the cream of life. 

Awake in the morning with bright thoughts; 
cling to them and forget yesterday, for that day 
has passed. Dwell only upon the new day. 

Greed and I cannot dwell in the heart at the 
same time. 

Through falling tears may shine my light. 

Forget yourself and allow courage to carry 
you through your trial. 

Courage faileth not, but will carry a man to 
success unthought of. 

Keep simplicity within thy mind, that the 
great forces may find ample space to work out 
their mighty powers. 

Material laws have limitations, each excess of 
pleasure has to pay with interest; but, spiritual 
pleasures have no limitations or compensations, 
and, unto him that hath spiritual pleasure, more 
shall be given. 

Cast thy all on faith, thou wilt not be betrayed. 


The outlook with faith is good, without faith, 
poor indeed. 

Has not my handwork in all things proved 
unto you my supreme power? Then, why be ye 
of small faith. 

My laws although unbreakable are filled with 
joy. 

Attract the forces of love and faith by sending 
forth good and thou shalt gain prosperity. 

Prosperity blossoms forth from man’s own 
generosity. 

Endeavor to make thy fallen companion pros¬ 
perous, and prosperity shall come unto thee. 

Meet thy acquaintance with a smile of love, 
which will take root and will enrich thee with 
power. 

Let love enter and invigorate thee with happi¬ 
ness, and accept the priceless jewel which is with¬ 
in thy soul; observe its lustre as it shines forth to 
inspire you that a treasure beyond all purchase is 
w r ith you. 

When thou would’st think that courage would 
forsake thee, turn right about and let courage em¬ 
brace thee with a double force. 


When the forces change, momentary relaxa¬ 
tion occurs, retain and hold your principles and 
you will gain your point. 

Fluctuations in commerce occur, retain thy 
bonds of security, permit not a doubtful thought 
to gather gloom o’er thy commerce. 

Guard against the glances of doubt for thy 
coming success. 

Show thy visitor FEAR as quickly as you can 
the door, and turn the key of courage upon him 
that he entereth not again. 

Fear on record never brought any one any 
success. 

The light of God is a beacon power unto Man¬ 
kind, watch the rays of its glory, observe its pen¬ 
etration, which, only those who walk with Him 
can understand to what great benefit it shines 
forth. 

My creation is love, light and charity, and he 
who giveth with a good heart I will return unto 
him three fold. 

Efficiency of thy power lays in thy handiwork, 
sustenance of thy being cometh from His spiritual 
force. Partake of it freely and thy eyes shall 
sparkle with the lustre of health. 


Ascending to God's sphere is easy, for, when 
He perceives thee, He assists with His mighty 
strength. 

Obedience to my laws are an enrichment to the 
body. 

Scatter sympathy broadcast that it may blos¬ 
som into love and save the world. 

Sympathy vibrates the innocent soul of the 
cooing babe, give of it freely and become noble in 
thy success. 

Courage is divine sentiment, thus, when thou 
hast courage, remember it is I that is with you; 
through every courageous act shineth my power. 

When thou would’st hold courage, thou takest 
a part of God. Thus, thy material force leaves 
thee, for that of the supreme power, which knows 
not of defeat. 

Pray for divine force that thy faith may be¬ 
come whole, and thou wilt see that thou art of Me. 

Faith is the first seed of prosperity. 

Obtain and retain thy fa,ith, even, if thy un¬ 
derstanding be weak. 

Faith in thy God is more precious than price¬ 
less diamonds. 


68 


Keep thine eyes open, lest thou mistaketh lust 
for love, for many a man calleth his lust love 
in his abomination, and giveth continual pain. 

Love giveth eternal life, but lust bringeth 
death. 

To love is to live. 

Let eye gaze into eye with purity of expres¬ 
sion, whereby reflecting the light of God. 

The enslaver of lust cries aloud in his pain, 
for his bones waxeth dry, knowing not of health. 

He who overcomes the lust senses begets 
health and wealth, and abundance in his full¬ 
ness. 

Weakness of the body is deeply stamped upon 
the cheek of the adulterer. 

Only the Spirit can give thee strength, take 
thy fullness from God, the sole and only Giver. 

Gratify not the ungodly appetite and suffer 
a life time misery. 

Watch the ways of Christ and shun the sen¬ 
sations of the body that giveth always false 
alarms. 

Let thy thoughts be lofty, for thy health lieth 
•therein. Lofty thoughts, spiritual desires, love 
for the down-trodden bring health unto the 
body. 


65 


Slowness of circulation is slowness of Love 
and of Life. 

Hasten thou and give thy love to some hun¬ 
gry heart, and vibrate thy being with emotion 
of love and remove thy pain. 

Action without the thought to do good, heal- 
eth not; for the powerful is in the thought of 
man. 

When thou givest without the desire to do 
good it shall be as nothing, and the reward shall 
he nothing. 

The widow's mite came from the heart, and 
great was the reward thereof. 

Find thine own true self and express the 
health of God. 

The monetary pleasures are but the seeds of 
destruction. 

Lust of the flesh is of the evil serpent, turn 
away from its fascinating false pleasures, and 
find the light of joy in God. 

Make thy wedlock of pure love and partake* 
of the lasting happiness of the pure of heart 

Let thy offspring be the outcome of co-crea 
tive desire only; and gain prosperity and health 
for thy child. 

Shun the lust of the flesh and maintain jo* 
in thy household. 


66 


The man and woman united only in love and 
ignoring the senses of lust enjoy health, joy, 
and abundance, for God is with them. 

The lust of the flesh sappeth the strength of 
the body. 

Keep near to God, Omnipotence, Omnipres¬ 
ence, and Causation of all life, and thereby es¬ 
cape the bondages of the senses. 

Pride and vanity of the flesh intoxicates and 
makes a man a fool amongst his fellow men, 
knowing not of the emptiness of his own vanity, 
until the hour cometh when he is deserted and 
alone. 

Marriage for the lust of the flesh makes an 
unruly house, and a noisy mob, for their hunger 
is never appeased. 

The intoxication of hoarding hangs a man 
with his own cord. 

Be not a slave unto material power for its 
depths are filled with snares. 

Seek ye rather the power of God and plunge 
into unknown realms of love and plenty. 

The momentary pleasures of lust is the seed 
of destruction, and life long misery. 

Gratification of the lust senses wages war 
against God. 


67 


He of the spiritual has an unceasing supply 
at his command. 

The flowers bloom continuously, thus shall 
the health of the pure minded continue in blos¬ 
som and beauty. 

Oh, ye drunkards, victims of the senses, come 
forth and find thine own true being; thou child 
of God, endeavor to have the desire within thy 
heart to be freed of thy bondage. 

Go to thy Father alone, and there declare 
unto Him thy desire that thou wouldst drop the 
yoke of the cursed habit and disease; thou shall 
receive His response and every fetter shall 
drop away from thee. 

The only means of losing the drink disease is 
through the power of God which must be sought 
by the victim himself. This healing is positive 
in its operation. 

O, thou who doth cherish the thoughts of 
greed, seek the Lord and lose thy fetters; and 
thereby receive thy birthright of health and 
abundance. 

Circulation of spiritual force will banish dis¬ 
ease. 

Think of your illness as a result of insuffi¬ 
cient supply of the divine power. 

63 


0, sister, go to the threshold of God's exist¬ 
ence and He will wrap thee in glory. 

Fear not, doubt not, and love not the material, 
lest, thou move away from divine prosperity. 

I am the Lord, thy God, with me is love, but 
my laws are unbreakable; obey me and abide by 
my laws and receive thy birthright of joy. 

Have peace within thy soul and joy within thy 
heart; with implicit faith in God, with peace and 
joy and wholly trust; all trials will fall to dust. 

Keep thy countenance beautiful by keeping 
the power of God surging through thy veins. 

Seek thy pillow with restfulness, awake with 
the freshness of morning dew; sing forth praises 
unto me, for I shall be with thee. 

The law of compensation is impregnable; ob¬ 
serve moderation in all thy worldly efforts. 

Quench thy thirst with the dew of my garden 
and appease thy hunger with the spirit of my love. 

0, man, if thou once knowest the love of thy 
father, thou wilt ne'er desire to leave Him. 

0, man, help the Lord thy God to make the 
world whole, by thy distribution of kindness and 
sympathy. 

69 


The running brook shall speak to thee of my 
love, and the brilliant rays there upon shall dis¬ 
play their dances of joy in my cause. 

Count not upon the gold you save 
Nor weigh your worldly hoard; 

But calculate the good you gave, 

Recorded by the Lord. 

The seed of Kindness hearts have brought, 
Will check the tears of care; 

The fragrance of unselfish thought, 

God and the angels share. 

A heart of fear and a sorrowing face, 

Ne’er will gain a winning race; 

Courage and faith, that onward go, 

Will gain the race if ever so slow. 

Thus always give where e’er you may 
With hope and love and joy; 

And feel before your work each day 
That God’s your hope and buoy. 

There is no covenant that I have not fulfilled; 
I have said that man shall be glorified through me. 

0, be strong, for I, the most powerful, am by 
thy side. 


To 


Riches of splendor, marvels of light. 

Shall shine o’er thee to give thee might. 

The material object which thou lovest, for¬ 
sake it, for it is but a temporary pleasure. 

Lavish thy love upon all mankind; by so do¬ 
ing thou slialt love my handiwork. 

There is no need of sitting in darkness while 
T hold the light over you. 

Money is the root of evil, and, he that would 
hoard, rejects my succor and strength. 

Gold is but a metal, whereas the diamond of 
God’s love is an eternal power and light; but, 
the love of glittering gold casteth dark shadows 
around the diamond of love, destroying the 
beautiful lustre of the precious diamond. 

They who love me shall be happy in the pur¬ 
suit. 

Give freely to the poor and needy, and I will 
give unto thee. 

I am the source from whence all blessings 
flow. 

Nothing was created by me, holding doubt 
or shadow. 

I dwell in the universe to give prosperity and 
peace thereto, thus, keep away from all shade, 
for into shade I enter not. 


71 


Surge through the waves and go with the 
tide for God is by thy side. 

Bear not malice in thy heart, malice poisonetli 
the blood and wrecketh the health of man. 

Reinforce thy joy with thanksgiving. 

Delight in the pleasures of thy neighbor and 
thy brow shall remain smooth. 

Thou canst not love thyself and me at the 
same time. 

Of what power is a man leaning solely upon 
his own material force? 

Be charitable to the downcast, and give 
thanks that thou art of the prosperous. 

Charity is a precious gem to the Lord, which 
he cherisheth with satisfaction. 

A noble spirit feeleth not of bodily pain, for 
he is tilled with the love of God. 

Honesty shineth upon all countenances of 
those who possess the virtue; to be honest is to 
be true, to be both is to be near to God. 

The cry of despair is not of God, turn from 
thy lamentations and embrace God’s joy. 

The same as God has created the sun filled 
with warmth and light, thus shall the soul of 
man be glorified with His light. 

72 


Turn not upon thy brother who has fallen, but, 
assist him to rise again, for as I have said: “He 
who has not sinned, let him cast the first stone. 

When you stoop to uplift the fallen, you raise 
yourself, glorified by my light. 

Succor those who are dependent upon thee 
with kindness, that I shall keep thy supplies abun¬ 
dantly replenished. 

Every kindness given in pain, from God a ran¬ 
som the giver will gain. 

Fear not the light of God, but glorify it. 

Through my light shine all the atmospheric 
forces of the Heaven and the earth. 

Lay thy burdens at my feet, that I may take 
their weight forever from thee. 

I created man for the brightness of the day 
and the happiness of the night. 

All my handiworks are of light and glory, 
praise me in thy songs and be happy ’neath my 
light everlasting. 

With me is no death, 1 created it not, for I am 
the living God. 

Obey me that the glories shall glow as the 
miracles of Jesus which healed through my light. 

Live in light and dwell in it for ever. 


In what manner of goods thou givest thy 
neighbor, thou givest to thy self. 

The praises of my love vibrates in the air with 
harmonious virtues. 

Every atmospheric force that causeth the 
downfall of man, is created by himself, through 
his ignorance and weakness. 

Every insect, every animal, in all conditions, 
has its food provided by me; thus, I say unto you, 
why shall man fear for tomorrow? 

I am thy father, and a just Father, rest on me, 
believe in me, and by my parental force, thou 
shalt be rewarded in prosperity. 

I am the power-house of thy electricity, and 
thy electricity is of my life. Watch the man of 
prosperity who would ignore my guidance, and he 
will fall like a broken reed, because he has refused 
my light, and become as an empty bulb. 

Every time a soul returneth to my dominion, 
rejoicing takes place; charging the atmosphere 
with currents of love which works its powers 
abundantly, its magnetic forces draw powers of 
generosity, which penetrates into the realms of 
glory everlasting. 


My strength shall creep into the veins of the 
weak of those who know me, each gliding step 
shall ignite power therein; and divine strength 
shall vibrate and call aloud with jubilant thanks¬ 
giving of strength. 

A wrinkled brow would ne’er be known, 

If sympathy were always shown, 

To clear the lines from off the face 
Give hope for what is termed disgrace. 

A step that’s high with head erect, 

Is gained through love and not neglect. 

A deed that’s done in charity 
Will light a darkened soul; 

Show the way to eternity 
And make repentants whole. 

Let love enter and invigorate thee with hap¬ 
piness. 

I have come unto thee and thou shalt seek me. 

Go, thou, into the peacefulness of the woods, 
and, thou shalt hear a voice speaking unto thee 
through the rustlings of the trees; list thou unto 
the murmurings and receive my instructions of 
wisdom. 

Reflect upon the tranquility of the woods, and 
hear my voice begging thee to come unto me. 


Keep thy soul firm against the shadow of 

greed, lest it enter therein and become thy de¬ 
struction. 

Seek me often and know my touch which is 

light. 

0, thou of noble character, thou dwelleth by my 
side, 

My eyes perceive thy countenance with joy and 
happy pride; 

The moments go and souls return unto my King¬ 
dom bright, 

A lasting joy, a joyous peace, for all beneath my 
light. 

Every thing doth speak of me, the sun, the flower 
and the tree, 

And every thing I give to thee, thou man created 
soul of me. 

Then why would’st thou attempt to leave a pas¬ 
ture fresh and green, 

Now let thy love unto me cleave for I am joy 
serene. 

0 waste it not, eternal love, for it is thy great 
wealth, 

But count the blessings from above, and find thine 
own soul’s health. 


76 


Gaze with admiration upon the morning 
glories, which climb upward to me, clinging to the 
light, displaying their magnificent beauty, with 
modesty and divine power. They are conscious 
of their beauty, but, when my light is not upon 
them, they close from view, and each beautiful 
bell waits in secret for my light to again display 
its beauty to mankind. Thus, is the lesson. Let 
mankind retire when he findeth his light becomes 
shaded and seek the light which I shall shine full 
upon him, if he seek it and he shall receive divine 
life everlasting. 

I come unto thee as a living light that thou 
shoulds’t not stumble. 

I will manifest myself in thee, thou shalt be as 
a light unto all; and a comfort to the needy. 

Show unto the world that I am the stimulus 
and the life of the being, which I have created. 

With me all is possible, my name is love, fear 
me not. 

He who has kindness of heart walketh with 
me. 

Honor the afflicted, by so doing thou findest 
me. 

I am the only power of thy existence, call upon 
me in adversity, thy prayer shall be answered. 


77 


AN ALLEGORY. 


The War within the Living Temple 
ol Man. 

The war continued to rage; there had been 
remarkable battles fought between those war¬ 
ring influences, Evil Passion and Divine 
Impulse. 

On the offensive side were well-armed troops, 
each troop led by an experienced officer. The 
officers were Generals Fear, Greed, Malice, Lust 
and Self Righteousness. 

On the defensive were the notable officers 
named Truth, Beauty, Love, Honesty, Sym¬ 
pathy, Compassion, etc. 

So long the war raged, with its tremendous 
destruction, that at length the High Court began 
to be anxious as to the efficiency of its Com¬ 
mander ; an inquiry was called to consider ways 
and means to improve the situation. 

At the meeting it was decided that General 
Reason should vacate his position; that General 
Intelligence take his place, with General Right 
Thought as an aide. 

Several battles later took place, with much 
78 



the same old results. Fear almost began to 
assail the new General. He again called a 
meeting of his officers and questioned all, in an 
endeavor to arrive at the cause of the trouble. 
For of late among other troubles there was 
found great shortage of Thought—ammunition, 
which sh ould have been delivered through the 
Kingdom of the Mind. He addressed General 
Good Heart. 

General Good Heart replied that he was 
quite innocent of the delay, the munitions of 
thought were not, indeed, coming through in 
sufficient quantities. It was not his fault, etc. 

Here General Right Thinking interposed, de¬ 
manding of him if he had any spare time while 
on duty. 

To this General Good Heart replied that as 
the munitions were so tardy there were many 
lonesome hours. 

“How do you spend them?” demanded the 
Commander. 

With a smile, General Good Heart admitted, 
“I generally smoke; a cigarette, pipe or cigar, 
helps pass the time away.” 

“H’m. And you?” addressing another 
officer. 


70 


“I generally take a glass of wine or beer; 
sometimes a little whiskey, because the — 99 

“Enough,” roared the General, before the 
officer could finish his answer. Then in a more 
tranquil tone he added: 

“Both of you men have been guilty of High 
Treason. You have cut off the supply of your 
thought-ammunition, by your indulgences in 
liquor and tobacco. These have paralyzed and 
stupified you, clogged the channels of thought 
through which the King had directed ideas. 
Your commands are to be given to others.” 

Next day these channels of thought were com¬ 
manded by Officers Reliance and Compassion; 
and then to the satisfaction of all concerned a 
good and bounteous supply of munitions ar¬ 
rived for immediate use. 

Still the war raged; one faction against the 
other. 

But since the arrival of plenty of munitions, 
the defensive constantly gained ground, the of¬ 
fensive was being starved out. At length came 
a day when a cry came from the commander 
of the offensive forces that they would sur¬ 
render and become peaceful subjects. 

“Surrender! No, my commands are, ‘Give no 


piarter’; no soldier to give in until the last of 
he enemy has been conquered. ’’ 

Again the battle raged, but it became a one¬ 
sided battle, for the offensive were becoming 
weakened by their constant beatings by General 
tight Thought. At last a day dawned when 
Victory was his, for not a living soul remained 
>f the enemy. 

On addressing his men the general thus ad¬ 
monished them: “My men, who have fought so 
bravely and carried us to Victory, doubtless 
t times you thought me hard in my commands 
:o make you fight till the last vestige of the 
jenemy was destroyed. But I assure you that 
was the only way by which the Divine Mind 
ould take possession of the Temple of man, 
and bring him unto Health and Prosperity.” 

} Because man cannot reign supreme within his 
iving temple, whilst there lurks therein even one 
of the enemies we have not destroyed. Even one 
is sufficient to overthrow the omnipotence of man, 
whereby he is deprived of his dominion over all 
things. 


Life. 

f Life—the Divine Power of God. 

Man, the spiritual offspring of God, perpetu¬ 
ating in flowing and ebbing power the force of 
the Divine. 

The unborn child, passive in the mother’s 
81 



womb, is but a lifeless image, until quickened by 
Divine power, by which it becomes a precious, 
living soul. 

Then when earthly birth arrives, it mani¬ 
fests God in its innocence and purity, and con¬ 
tinues to glorify God until environment and 
conditions begin to grow upon the child; then, 
after some years the Divine innocence is less 
apparent, material influence has claimed the 
child of God as its own. In this path he wan¬ 
ders away from his original state of being, and 
becomes bound and fettered by material laws 
and circumstances. 

He sutlers, but it is not through God that he 
suffers thus, it is because he has strayed from 
his Father’s protection and has relied upon his 
own physical strength. Some of God’s chil¬ 
dren cry aloud and accuse God of their pain 
and sickness; but God has never had any par¬ 
ticipation in the coming about of these down¬ 
falls. The only cause of the suffering is, that 
man, God’s off-spring, has wandered away from 
his Parental guidance. The prodigal son does 
not find rest or health until he again returns to 
his Father’s house. 

Whereupon, such return of any son is al¬ 
ways welcomed by the Spiritual Father, with 
killing of the fatted calf, because of the rejoic- 
82 


ing at the return of the lost and wandering 
sheep to its fold. 

Therefore, we must understand that God does 
not give or sanction sickness or down-fall. It 
is by not keeping beneath the radiant rays of 
His vibrating Light of power why we suffer. 
If we do not bask ip the sun when it is shining, 
but retreat to a shady spot instead, we should 
not complain that the shady spot is not filled 
with sunshine. So it is with Divine power: we 
can partake of it, or we can ignore 'it, but the 
consequence is ours, hot that of our Heavenly 
Father, who is ever ready to take back His 
children under His rays of Light, health and 
abundance. 

And if every one would reflect upon the say¬ 
ing of our Saviour, “Thou hast hidden these 
things from the wise and prudent, and revealed 
them unto babes, *’ we shall understand that the 
babe has a God-mind palpitating within its spir¬ 
itual being; we could thus take a lesson from 
the purity of childhood and again learn to lean 
upon the resources of our Heavenly Father. 

“And whoso shall receive one such little child 
in my name reeeiveth me.”— St. Matthew, 18, 
v. 5.

Temperance. 

Tlie comfort, solace and pleasure of life 
It* trail makes peace that frees us from strife; 
Shedding forth glories which garland our way, 
Turning dark night into fair day. 

It controls the world by wondrous powers 
By moulding brave men from our infant flowers; 
Its strength restores a broken heart 
And prepares for the fallen a noble part. 

Temperance is never a failing friend. 

The concrete heart to its softness will bend, 
Uplifts the drunkard to a new clear light 
And soothes him with hope and all that’s bright. 

It vibrates all with the glow of health 
Drives away sickness, crowns us with wealth, 
Kindles all hearts with the essence of jpy 
’Tis proven to be a life saving buoy. 

Sing temperance loudly with joy on your way 
Cheering the down-trodden with your lay 
Its place is next to our Father in Heaven 
It’s the blessing of life which He has given. 

Teach temperance with a mind that’s proud 
To know that your lesson is free from cloud 
And thank our Saviour and pray him to send 
A soul to be with us—a temperance friend.

Perpetual Youth 

Picturesque homesteads stand out in their pride, 
With far spreading beauty on either side; 

Amid beautiful woods of oak and of pine, 

Where transparent lakes glitter and shine. 


Beautiful landscapes and prosperous farms 
Do not express all North Windham’s great charms, 
Fine men who boast of three score and above 
Are working all day and enjoying God’s love. 


A lady who’s worthy of note lives here, 

With pride she carries her eighty-sixth year; 
She knits and she sews and smiles as she goes, 
She’s always too busy to list to folks woes. 


She plants her garden and is first to see 
You cultivate well the ground and the tree 
Her work is done through the golden hours 
She extols in youth among the flowers. 


Her needle work earned the praise they told 
Good work to her is more precious than gold; 
While she sews her thoughts to Him are given 
And petals of love unfold in Heaven. 


She steps to church so blithe and gay, 

And welcomes her friends as flowers in May 
She sings her hymns in a clear sweet voice 
Quotes the Scripture that all rejoice. 


She sits at home and bakes her bread 
No queen would she be but in her own stead 
So often good folks her virtues have sung 
And all admire brave Susan Young. 


“LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF/' 

Love thy neighbor, sister brother, 

For God bade us love each other; 

From out its basis springs good health, 
Triumph, joy and mighty wealth.

SONGS 


EASTER SONG 

Sing melodies of mirth and . glee, 

The wedding songs of Galilee; 

And pour out notes alike His wine, 
Glowing with loving truths divine. 

CHORUS. 

Glad bridal songs of joy we sing, 
Rejoicing in our Saviour King; 

Sound jubilant both drum and song, 
For we with Christ now march along. 


Swell forth love pathos from thy soul, 
Let chords of triumph boldly roll; 
Exalt thy vocal powers with mirth, 
To glorify this time on earth. 


The Bridegroom brings us sparkling 
Distilled from fruits of His own vine; 
Sing loud thy songs in happiness 
He gives new life and endless bliss. 


Sing Easter songs of joy to Him, 
His cup of love o’erflows the brim; 
Drink in His truths and glory free, 
Unite all souls in harmony. 



PEACE, BE STILL! 

The breakers rose high o’er the storm lashed shore 
The tempest resounded that hope was no more, 

The ceaseless, relentless powers of the deep 
Thundered their rage through the hours of sleep. 

Life’s billows roll forth and a sad toll they gain, 
Countless weak creatures who sink through their pain. 
We hear cries of anguish , that fill the cold air 
The faint scream of terror, the moan of despair. 
Onward and onward the storm wages wild, 

No thought for the . Father, no care for the child, 

But on to its purpose with merciless sway, 

Collecting its victims along tlie grim way. 

The storm is sin’s shadow us virtue is light, 

Arise and denounce it and find thy own right, 

The power is prayer to Infinite God, 

Rejoice in His blessings and tread where He trod. 

In every wild storm we shall find rescue yet, 

If God and His strength we do not forget, 

Storms only can rage when He is not near. 

Seek Him and keep Him through life’s journey here. 

The storms cannot harm you although strong their might 
If Jesus is with you His blessed light; 

He’ll lead you away from darkness forlorn 
For of His own spirit thy soul has been born. 


FATHER 

O, Father dear within thy realms of wondrous light above, 

Watching o’er my heart’s desires with thine own precious 
love 

Thou grantest every pleading wish from all thy blessing rare, 

While music gently soars to us borne the Heavenly air. 

Compassion from Thee Father dear, excels the swelling 
strain, 

Thy wondrous works are everywhere, with us Thou dost re¬ 
main, 

To comfort every bleating lamb that from thy fold has 
strayed 

Thou, Lamb of God, shall call us home, unharmed and un¬ 
afraid. 



HIS LIGHT. 


Infinite light which thou hast given, 

Reflection of life that reigns in Heaven; 

Seeking our love o’er the sombre tide, 

Great secrets of truth thy glories confide. 
Marvellous rays, celestial power, 

Awakening life as the spring time flower; 
Brilliant rays—glowing shafts cf fire, 

Kindling the world to loving desire. 

Beautiful beams that brightly shine through, 
Delighting the soul with their wondrous hue; 
Lifting the shadows that shade God’s sphere, 
Dancing, revealing that He is here. 

Rainbow of light how superbly you weave, 
Harmonious tones ‘‘ ’twere folly to grieve”; 
Heavenly power thy great, mighty sv r ay, 

Lightens the path to the Heavenly way. 

Thou sunset of light, love’s messages shine, 
Lifting man up to thy powers divine; 

Adorable light, thou sea from above, 

Illumine our hearts with thoughts . of His love. 


THE LIGHT OF MAN. 

Let all rejoice in Jesus dear, 

Because we feel His presence here; 

All hearts shall rise from sorrow free, 

God is our light across life’s sea.

Rejoice with all the faith of old, 

New^ days of hope dawn bright as gold.

For every eye the light shall see, 

No blemish now can blur the sight, 

For man has found eternal light. 

His wisdom now shall fill each heart, 

From whence the light will ne’er depart; 
The soul unfolds in Heaven’s sun; 

Eternal victory is won. 


GLORY TO OUR KING. 

Glory, glory, we will sing, 

In honor to our Heavenly King; 

Who reigns o’er us with power divine, 
And gives us fruit from His own vine, 
Glory, glory to our King. 

Praise,.all men, His precious name, 

His love for all is just the same; 

No fetter now can clasp our strength, 
For God our King has come.at length. 
Glory, glory to our King.

Look down from thy heights and grant grace unto me 
Send forth thy virtues of love to my soul,

I have in abundance direct from thy breast; 
Cherished and fondled and succoured by thee, 
God of, the mountain and Lord of the sea. 


GOD’S LOVE. 

O, let thy restless spirit be, 

Calmed in His tranquility; 

And let His peace and love control, 

The yearning of thy inmost soul. 

The supervision of God’s care, 

Shall clear away all thy despair; 

And lead thee to immortal life, 

Expelling fancied earthly srtife. 

Return the kindness of His. love, 

Accept His power from above; 

Thus the pulses of thy heart, 

Shall throb with Him and ne’er depart.

There are for thee upon this earth! 

Joyous bliss and glorious power, 

When thou with Him shalt dwell each hour. 


91 



CHANT . THE MELODIES 

We’ll chant the melodies of God, 

That we may tread where He hath trod; 
Where hope and peace with love combine 
Within His wondrous powers divine. 

Sing glory to His Saints above, 

Who share His throne in blissful love; 
Grant us the grace to recognize, 

That Heaven is our eternal prize. 
Archangels where the music soars, 

Extend thy strains upon our.shores; 

Redeem our souls w r ith 'thine own song, 

To harmonize this life along. 

Ye saints above whose power is light, 

Teach us adversity to right,

That we in Him too may abound.

For God illumined it so bright; 

We join with ye, ye saints above, 

To feast upon eternal love. 


TRIUMPH OF THE SOUL. 

O, brother, there are pleasures here, 
Beyond the reach of eye or ear; 

The triumphs of immortal soul; 

Whence joy and peace undaunted roll. 

The soul awakened feels and knows, 

Each thought of purity that flows;. 

And basks within the eternal light, 
Conscious of its glorious might. 

O, harken thou unto jhy soul, 

Thy care.and grief it may console; 

The wonders of its magic spell, 

Are greater than the tongue can tell. 

List to thy soul, its spirit deep, 

Shall rouse thy virtues from thwr sleep;

Like petals of the budding dower, 
Unfold thy soul’s almighty power.

MAN—IMMORTALITY 

O do not think that man can die, 

For in the thought untruth doth lie, 
He lives throughout all space and time 
In loving joy and peace sublime. 

He’s born again by lofty thought, 

And like a little child is wrought, 
Reclaims his own—no favor’s sought, 
By principles that Jesus taught. 


93 




No thought of sex, or sect, or creed, 
Ilis spirit pure and chaste indeed, 
Tie breathes beneath eternal light, 
Heedless of time and nature’s flight. 
Celestial is his dwelling sphere, 

In happiness he triumphs here, 

They reign supreme—Father and son 
In Fellowship—living in One. 

Thou soul of love and harmony— 
Living to bless Eternity, 
Triumphant, glorified and free, 

Man in his IMMORTALITY. 


FOR HEALTH AND SUCCESS. 

Ask of Him, the Healer, thy God to heal thy 
maladies and adjust thy fallen circumstances. 

Petition but once or twice. 

Ask with perfect faith and trust. 

Realize within thy heart that you are sure of 
being healed in body and triumph in your cir¬ 
cumstances. 

For, He heareth all things and refuseth 
nothing. 

Every day repeat thy prayer of rejoicing, be¬ 
cause thy healing is certain and thy success is 
assured. 


0, my God; I am enraptured by Thy holy 
presence. I feel Thee in every condition of 
body, every degree of health, vitality and 
strength. I rejoice in Thee, because I have 
found my strength in Thee. Amen.

And tenderly these words he spake; 
“Love One Another, for my sake."
